Hogwarts RPG Name: Matilda Adele Dem Mc'nuland Second Year | Quote:
Originally Posted by strawberriesandlace The potato - some of the best she had ever tasted, in fact - had been doing fairly well in convincing Kana that the Hogwarts was not, in fact, a blizzarding wilderness. She had settled down enough, in fact, to eavesdrop on other people's conversations and was slowly but surely gaining the idea that - but of course - Ravenclaw was highly overrated for being the clever house. She was just about to reach for another bun when from behind her, a voice - if you could call it a voice, Kana thought dourly. More like a whine, or a shrill, calculated to give one a headache - came from behind her:
Kana was not a person given to witty repartee. She simply stopped, stared, realised that this person was not worthy of being hit with her parasol, and turned to fling her golden plate - replete with the remains of mashed potatoes, a sizeable load of gravy, several cakes and a banana - at Matilda. It all took about two seconds. Having rage and wiry little arms besides, the plate flew true and strong, food splattering everywhere like tiny missiles from a golden ship, and smacked Matilda straight in the gullet.
"Who looks a mess now?" said Kana, maliciously. It wasn't the best, but actions certainly speak louder than words.
Matilda had always wondered what it was like being thrown gold at. The plate was gold, and it wasn’t as pleasant as she had fancied. She had hardly the time to blink before food splattered against her in a way that would have made her grandmother faint. She stood between the tables in bewilderment, trying with difficulty not to explode into a fit of coarse language.
What she managed to say was, “You food waster...!” And she didn’t care for the parasol of doom anymore than she cared about the brand-name head bow and nonpareils cupcake necklace. Several things happened at once: Matilda at random grabbed a plate of what might be cheese cake and closed the distance between Kana and her with it lifted over her shoulders. That would have shocked her grandmother into death. It never occurred to her how hypocritical she looked. She must have cared about her second-hand clothes more than it was suggested.
The plate replaced the head bow with a definite splat. “Now you look like the inaccuracy of a gnome."

Karma turned at the sudden commotion not too far from her. She saw two girls going at it, and in return, nothing was happened. Nothing HAD happened so far.
And then.
SPLAT.
Her jaw dropped as the second girl hit the first with a plate full of food. She couldn't BELIEVE this was happening. First day back, and a cat fight?
Not too much later, the first girl hit the second with a plate as well. WHAT ON EARTH?

"If you are just fine," Winnie reasoned, "well then pull out the fork." Hopefully, if he pulled out the fork his nose wouldn't go with it. THAT she couldn't handle.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Kana Takemoto-Zhou First Year |
"What the hell," snarled Kana, rising forth from the cheesecake like a volcano, "is the 'inaccuracy of a gnome'?" Kana knew perfectly well that her parents had been so invested in her going to Hogwarts not because 'it was a good education', or because she was 'carrying on the proud heritage of her grandmother' or some high-minded ideal like that. They wanted her to have a fresh start - and possibly to stop wearing frilly clothes that cost too much.
At least back home, she had managed to keep those frilly damn clothes clean!
A fork zinged past Matilda's ear as Kana rose, grabbing hold of whatever she could. Never once in her life had she cared about making a scene and she certainly wasn't withholding anything now. A steaming hot potato flew in Matilda's general direction and Kana took the time to stick her parasol somewhere safe.

Willie scowled at her, annoyed that she was pointing out things he did not want to know. "I dun care!" He yelled at her, his hands tightly holding onto his pants. The fork in his nose wasn't really helping his pants at all.
"I am fine!" He insisted, his eye twitched with anger. "Ye'll thee that I'm fine, ye bugga!" And then, at that moment, Willie did what he was not supposed to do. He did the thing that would embarrass him the most. He did...
He placed both hands on the fork that stuck on his nose, leaving his pants unattended.
Well, that means the boy's pants dropped. A yelp fell from his lips as he bent down to grab his pants. The fork hit the table, causing it to jab more into his nose.
"YEEEEOOOOOOUWWWW!!!!" |

Jenn was starving it felt like to her. Stomach rumbling, she ran over to the table and sat down. Dumping whatever was closest on her plate she dug in and stuffed her mouth full of food. "Mmmm."she remarked, smiling.

Amy watched as Jake grabbed another hand of food and smirked at him before answering. “Well I have a few like Care of Magical Creatures, Transfiguration,..,” she paused looking at Jake. “But I am also kind of nerves, “ she added with a shrug.
See let her gaze stray away from Jake to the large windows, “I can’t wait to get outside. I think that is where our majority of studying should be held.” She shot Jake a wide grin as she turned back toward the table.

Judging by the ruckus further down the table, this was going to be another eventful term. Qaz was just glad the headmasters speech was over so they could eat. Brushing her tabby, HiJinx, off her lap...she grabbed a breast of chicken, tore off several chunks and tossed them on the floor for her cat. Then she filled her plate and began to devour every morsel on it....

"YEEEEOOOOOOUWWWW!!!!" Winnie was quite taken aback. She didn't know what she doing here, attempting to reason with an injured Willie Crocker. Still, no one should have to sit around with cutlery stuck up their nose, regardless of their apparent innate wickedness. You'd think that his natural tendency to incinerate happiness and rainbows would have melted the fork, but alas, it pushed still further up his poor, defenseless, human nose. Perhaps, on the inside, he was...good.
Could anyone who wore underwear with bright pink pygmy puffs really be that bad? She took pity on poor Crocker.
"Ohhh," she moaned. "Oh no Willie...pick up your pants. Please. It's all riiiiight," she said. "We can get the fork out, we'll just have to take you to the nurse, all right?" She went forward to give him a hug, but thought better of it. She might still lose a hunk of flesh from her arm if she tried to hug him.

What on earth is he on about? "Er... I'm not exactly sure what you mean. Are you referring to Cale Newell?" she asked in a confused voice, racking her brains for some knowledge on the guy that concerned her. Nothing came up. It's probably something that they prefect last year had cooked up... I have to find her and ask so that I don't look like a complete idiot next time. Barry looked at her and smilled. He said "Your new arn`t you?" not in a bad way but in a understanding way. "I was talking about Cale two well thats not his real second name. He`s our male prefect. I was merly asking if you have anything planned for this term. The names Barry Weasley" he said. At least she seemed nice. Quote:
Originally Posted by Lowlow The small boy twitched even more when she mimicked him. What did she mean by that?! Was she making fun of him?! He should bite her. Yes, that would do. Although, that thought soon evaporated when he blinked down at his fork seeing a strawberry was stuck on it. Looking up at Cela with a confused look, he looked back down at the strawberry and sighed. He was already tired, he shouldn't bother biting her today. He'll do it later.
Sticking the strawberry in his mouth, he sucked on the fruit while green eyes surveyed the halls. Everyone seemed excited to be here. He was excited as well, but right now with his clothes Willie wasn't that excited. He just wanted to get to Garret and get him to help fix the whole problem.
"Hbhai." He mumbled the fork still in his mouth as he kept on sucking the fruit. Sticking the fork out, he smiled sweetly at her, tilted his head and said, "Me name'th Willie. Willie Crocker." And with that, he stuck the fork back into his mouth.
Garrets brother. He was a Ravenclaw. In disbelief he almost fell over. He walked over and sat across from the little kid. He asked in the nicest way he could "You got into Ravenclaw? Good".
He looked up at the new voice and frowned deeply. "I ain't a Ravenclaw, mate." Willie told him, shaking his head. "Been wantin' to be in Thlytherin, but thtupid 'at put me in Hufflepuff." Putting back the fork, he lied his head on the table and watched the students around him. This was very, very boring. He needed to do something.
His eyes widened once he saw a hand place some candy on the table and then to his amazement, a pygmy puff! When he'll go to Diagon Alley next time, he'll buy himself a pygmy puff and call him... call him... Well, when the time comes, he'll be able to name him. Barry sighed " Thats wrong. Its Slytherin and stupid hat." he said and he muttered "No wonder" then realising he was being mean with the kid he said "Sorry about before at diagon Alley. Hufflepuff isn`t so bad anyway. You learn to be loyal and stuff. People might even trust you with sweets" He hoped he was pressing the right buttons Quote:

Professor Bontecou rubbed the bridge of his nose, bumping his glasses up to his forehead a few times in the process. He settled he dirty things back ino place and cleared his throat. When that clearly wasn't going to do it, he tapped his glass with a spoon for attention. Then, he cleared his throat again. "Well, here we are again or for the first time, I guess, if you're a new student," he grinned. "I'm Professor Reynard bontecou, potions master and recently appointed headmaster. I can only hope to be half the leader the great Cassandra Rae was and that you'll all bear with me as I become accustomed to my new role."
He was starting to babble and this wasn't going anywhere in the direction he'd practiced. Oops. Okay, kiddos are starving and now his stomach was gumbling, too so he'd better make it quick. "So, well, I guess now's the time I welcome all the returning professors and the new ones as well. We've got quite the line up this term with Miss Lupa for Runes, Ian Ashby for Charms, Mr. Truebridge filling the crazy shoes of Professor Lainey," he began and then started getting off track again. He really needed to stop fan boying over Rae and Lainey. He cleared his throat again, "Iliana Morgan as Care of Magical Creatures teacher, Anastasia Bunbury in herbology, the venerated and esteemed Professor Kazimeriz as defense teacher, and last, but certainly not least, the lovely Meredith Brooks-Byron manning... well, womanning, the infirmary."
"Well, I guess that's it for introductions. I look forward to a productive term and enjoy the food!" he finished up his speech with a wild flourish of a hand gesture and then sat down feeling like an idiot, but beaming and quite pleased and amused anyway.
"Well, that's that," he said, speaking to his now full plate "Thats him? I just hope he`s up to standards" he said as the headmaster said his speach. Quote:

"Right." Cela agreed, "I don't know, I'm not really so good at naming pets. It took me months to name my owl." She hummed to herself happily and looked around the table.
"Oh my!" Cela exclaimed as she blinked at the presents put in front of her. Candy. Pygmy Puff. She turned around and gave Barry a hug, being careful of the scorpion of course. Turning back to the candy, Cela dropped the Scorpion down her shirt and made a crooning noise as she picked up the pygmy puff, "Yeah it was nice." Cela agreed half absently, before blinking at the warning about contacting Nico, "Oooh. I'll be good." she promised before offering some candy around.
Cela grinned at Willie and gestured to the candy while stroking her newest pet. Barry was always so nice to her. And on the bright side; a pygy puff was a pet that her brother would approv... Cela stopped midthought, realising she didn't so much mind whether he approved or not anymore.
It wasn't like he was here.
"Thats funny, Garret said he wanted to be a Slytherin toooooo." Cela noted.
Cela picked up a jelly slug and happily began to suck on it, her head cocked as she listened to the conversations around her. Nom. Jelly Slug.
"Hi!" Cela turned her head as another kid sat nearby. She gestured to the stash of Candy Barry had put on the table in front of her, "Want some?"
She made her gesture wider to include the other people sitting nearby that she didn't know. Barry was suprised about the hug but soon recovered. It was so easy to make Cela happy if only everyone was like her. He would be the most popular boy in school. He then remembered something and asked her "Hey Cela you know last term at the end of the test in the room you got something. Where is it?" Quote:
Originally Posted by Lowlow Lifting his head up from the table, green wide eyes looked at her amused. "'E did?" Willie blinked. He never knew that his brother had wanted to get into Slytherin. "'E didn' wanna go ter go to Thlytherin before I wanted to!" He told her, annoyed a bit.
"Thith ith BORING" The boy exclaimed, throwing his hands in the air forgetting the fork was in his hand. The fork flew up into the air and when Willie realized this, he looked up when he shouldn't have.
CLAAAAAAANK.
"YEEEEEOWWWWW!" The small boy yelped, clasping his hands onto his nose. His eyes tearing at the pain that was searing through his nose. "BOYYYYYYYYY!!!" exclaimed Barry scince he didn`t know his name he asked "Are you alright? Anything broken? Need to see the nurse" Quote:
Originally Posted by FoxFire Winnie wandered between the house tables, making mental notes about her peers. They're all so small...some of them incredibly emotional. Maybe it's the stress of a magical education...so much competition to BE THE BEST at something. Hmm.
Then she stopped short at the Ravvie table. WILLIE CROCKER was there. For once he wasn't trying to bite someone, or threatening someone's livelihood. He might have been distracted by the fork stuck up his nose.
She didn't quite know what to do. Should she run to his aid, grasp the fork in both hands, place a foot on his shoulder and pull for dear life? Run to get an adult? Run for her own life, as Willie's eyes were sure to roll into the back of his head, sharp incisors gnashing and sweat beads gathering on his brow?
She panicked instead.
"OH IN THE NAME OF ALL THINGS HOLY AND MAGICAL!!" She ran up to him, hands flapping uselessly. "Are you alright?! Can you breathe? CAN YOU BREATHE??!" "Give him some space" he said laughing at how panicy the girl was. Wait he shouldn`t be Quote:

There was food... flying.
Issy saw it out of the corner of her eyes, a flash of gold flying, a plate that was soaring through the air and food that was splattering on people, on the table, on the floor. And inside, she felt the panic rise, because Ravenclaw did not lose, nor did they misbehave.
Without saying anything to Juni, Issy jumped up, surging with adrenaline and sense of authority pumping through her veins. Her usually sweet face was rearranged and her childish features twisted with anger, brows lowered deeply over her eyes, their vivid green bright with her temper.
"What in the name of Merlin's beard do you think you guys are doing?" she snarled as she approached them. "A FOOD fight? REALLY? How old are you all?" Narrowed eyes looked over all of them and she realized that her hands were on her hips, like her Mummy did when she was angry. "We're in the Great Hall at the OPENING FEAST and you think it smart to throw food around? ARE YOU GUYS BARBARIANS?! Do you plan to make us lose the Cup from the get go?"
Ravenclaw was supposed to be a good example! And now they were going to lose points because of a few stupid, ignorant children who insisted on behaving like monkeys? Selfish! That's what they were! Selfish children! |

Matilda hated to think what would happen to the people stationed behind her. She hated to think what would happen to the people in front of her as well. “You should…” she said, raising an arm to protect her face from the canons of steaming potatoes, “…look in a mirror,” she gasped, “and perhaps you’ll find out!” unless the mirror shattered first.
Moments earlier, she had thought Hogwarts would be tolerable so long as there were food. And now it was being spoilt by an abomination that might as well spoil everything else. “You’re DEAD!” the first year screeched, picking up the fallen potato and threw it with the force of a catapult. The sight would have sent her grandmother to tears even in her grave. Quote:

Selfish children! The only thing Matilda hadn’t counted on was her off aim. Someone had been yelling, and Matilda had thought it was Kana. Her fingers left the potato and the laws of acceleration did not stop it from colliding with Issy.
“Fudge.”

Amy gave a small nod feeling blissful by the way Jake said he would taker her outside soon. It made her previous feelings of abandonment vanish. She always knew Jake would be there and help her in any way; yet to hear him talk the same way put it in a whole other ball park.
Then before she could get a word out Bella came running into the Great Hall her blue eyes shinning in what look like anger. After jumping up on her lap Amy began to stoked the furry feline. “What is the matter Bella,” she asked looking down at the cat.

Moments earlier, she had thought Hogwarts would be tolerable so long as there were food. And now it was being spoilt by an abomination that might as well spoil everything else. “You’re DEAD!” the first year screeched, picking up the fallen potato and threw it with the force of a catapult. The sight would have sent her grandmother to tears even in her grave.
The only thing Matilda hadn’t counted on was her off aim. Someone had been yelling, and Matilda had thought it was Kana. Her fingers left the potato and the laws of acceleration did not stop it from colliding with Issy.
“Fudge.” Robert sat awhile listening to the few first years yell and throw stuff at each other, with his head in his hands. For the love of Merlin...I'm surrounded by bloody kids. He looked up when he heard a girl yelling at the first years and at that moment watched as a potato flew and his Issy dead on. Having enough of their antics Robert pushed up off the table and walked over toward the first year. Looking down at her his eyes flared, "Are you bleeding insane?!" He reached over and pushed her plate away from her and stared at the first year, "Come here, you're going to apologize to that girl and then you're going to sit over near the prefect since you obviously can't sit around people your age. I'm not about to lose points just because you're irritated at that other girl."

Kana should not have laughed. It became obvious later on that she really should not have laughed, but the sight of the other girl very much covered in root vegetable made her giggle, albeit a trifle hysterically.

Without saying anything to Juni, Issy jumped up, surging with adrenaline and sense of authority pumping through her veins. Her usually sweet face was rearranged and her childish features twisted with anger, brows lowered deeply over her eyes, their vivid green bright with her temper.
"What in the name of Merlin's beard do you think you guys are doing?" she snarled as she approached them. "A FOOD fight? REALLY? How old are you all?" Narrowed eyes looked over all of them and she realized that her hands were on her hips, like her Mummy did when she was angry. "We're in the Great Hall at the OPENING FEAST and you think it smart to throw food around? ARE YOU GUYS BARBARIANS?! Do you plan to make us lose the Cup from the get go?"
Ravenclaw was supposed to be a good example! And now they were going to lose points because of a few stupid, ignorant children who insisted on behaving like monkeys? Selfish! That's what they were! Selfish children! Karma's eyes widened as another student began to get involved in the girl's mess that she had started. What was going on? Is there no respect for ANYONE or anything anymore?
She knew the girl was trying to do the right thing, but she did, unfortunately see this coming along. "I wouldn't do that if I were you - "
But it was too late. The Slytherin had released her arm and food was flying onto the other Ravenclaw.
That was enough. What was going on here anyway? "ENOUGH!" she yelled, standing up. "What do you two think you are doing? Like she said, it's the first day! Why are you causing such a scene? Have you no respect for anyone, including each other?"
Where was a teacher when she needed one? These girls would obviously listen to no one.

Willie was red.
In both ways, really. His cheeks were burning up red from embarrassment. His pants had fallen off! And his nose was red, well, from the excessive bleeding. The fork was really stuck in now and the fact his bright pink pygmy puff undies were showing was just too much.
"Shuuut up!" He snapped at the girl who seemed to be cooing him. At first she was terrified of him and now this?! This?! She probably felt so sorry for him! No one feel sorry for a Crocker! "Ye jutht SHUT UP!" His green eyes glared at her, but deep inside, really deep he wanted to blow up and cry. He wanted his Mum to hold him and tell him it's all right and since his mum wasn't here he wanted Garret. Garret would know what to do.
Bending down and being careful not to hit the fork on the table again, Willie held onto his pants tightly. "I ain't gunna go to no nurthe! ye hear me?! I ain't gunna go!" He told her angrily.
This was most humiliating.
Turning to face the Ravenclaw who spoke to him earlier, Willie furiously shook his head, which made him a bit dizzy. "I ain't gunna! I'll jutht put a handke'chief'th all." He tried to smile, but failing miserably. This was not something to smile about.
OOC: D: Dang! It's late, I gtg to beeeed. MREEP. Night! <3

Hogwarts RPG Name: Sophia Svensson #556B2F Slytherin Fifth Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Eulalia Walles (#F48037) Hufflepuff Fourth Year | Constant Vigilance! O_O AWAKE! There went Issy. Juniper’s eyes widened as her friend stalked off to yell at some foolish first years. Trust Issy to take it into her own hands to try to save Ravenclaw’s points. Juniper bit her lip and glared at the first years from a distance. Issy was the outspoken one. Juniper would just… stay out of the way. Yes, that was always best, especially since she had not initially noticed the flying food.
And then one of the girls threw a potato at Issy. That simply would not do. Frowning, Juniper got to her feet and practically ran to Issy’s side.
“Excuse me!” Juniper crossed her arms and glared at the younger girls as if they had been mistreating a young hedgehog. “But she’s right. Stop quarreling like a bunch of Cornish pixies, and go sit down. Enjoy the feast.” After glancing at Issy out of the corner of her eye, Juniper scowled at the two girls. It was bad enough that they were causing trouble and making a mess. But to disturb other people’s feast experiences… and to throw food at someone not even involved. That was just plain rude.
“So if you’re quite finished, go sit down and just stay away from each other.” Juniper gave the girls one last infuriated glance before turning to walk back to her own seat. |

SPLAT.
Her jaw dropped as the second girl hit the first with a plate full of food. She couldn't BELIEVE this was happening. First day back, and a cat fight?
Not too much later, the first girl hit the second with a plate as well. WHAT ON EARTH? Damian heard a girl yelling and looked out *What the ...*
3 Girl covered with food. "Oh my Good", he said shocked.
and then on the left side of him .... Quote:

"Thith ith BORING" The boy exclaimed, throwing his hands in the air forgetting the fork was in his hand. The fork flew up into the air and when Willie realized this, he looked up when he shouldn't have.
CLAAAAAAANK.
"YEEEEEOWWWWW!" The small boy yelped, clasping his hands onto his nose. His eyes tearing at the pain that was searing through his nose.
... Willi had hurt himself his nose with the fork.
Damian blinked a few times and he was speechless. He opened his mouth but no word came out. *When the first day ends like this, I am afraid of the rest of the year* he thought. *that must hurt*
*autsch* "Hey. Everything ok?" he asked with a painful look.

"My, my, my." Tsked a quiet voice; which, despite its pitch, could be heard all the way down the table. "Ravenclaws acting in such a manner. What happened to your house pride? This is such a shameful act!" For a moment, you cannot determine where the voice is coming from.
Within moments, however, you take note of a pale woman nearby. She appears to be...floating?
Dressed in regal, though old-fashioned, attire, the quiet voice speaks again. "You show great disrespect to your house mates, your fellow students, and to the professors of this school. I would have never thought that I would see such a day." A look of severe disappointment was present on her pretty, yet pale, nearly transparent complexion.

Hearing someone behind him Robert turned from the food-throwing first year to find another with a fork stuck in his nose and his pants down. Running a hand through his hair he groaned, What in the bloody hell is going on with these first years. Looking around he saw that a few other older students had come over to speak to the food-throwing one, so he walked over toward the boy and the...fork.
Sighing he looked down at the boy as he seemed to be emphatically refusing to see a nurse, "I'm afraid you are going to go. I know you're embarrassed...trust me I'd be too. But if you don't go willingly I'll carry you to the nurse." His face was serious as the looked at the boy. How did he get that in there? |

Her arms felt like they should not have been there, posed in the previous throwing stance. She let them drop to her side, face nearing the colour of a plum (from embarrassment of anger, she wasn’t quite sure which it was.) And suddenly, everyone was yelling but it didn’t matter anymore – since the only one that really mattered happened to be the only one hysterically giggling.
She couldn’t help it. She laughed.

Hogwarts RPG Name: November {Noe} Franze First Year | Brain Twin | MASTAH ASHURRII | Reisdent PokeNerd | Digifangirl Just like a film, suddenly, time slowed down and everything went in exaggeratedly slow motion. She watched the Slytherin girl's arm fling forward, fingers open and the potato fly from her grasp. The course, she knew, was decidedly her, and though Issy was fully aware of this, her senses were stunned and she couldn't move. Her first instinct was to grab her wand, but she knew better than to try to use magic in the Great Hall. All she could do was stand there and let the potato attack her. No sense was in ducking - there was food all over the floor as it was.
And now, her new robes were covered with potato. Breathe. Deep breaths, Issy she instructed herself, taking a deep, shuddering breath and holding it so long that her face began to turn a blotchy purple.
She could hear some boy trying to take charge. Another girl was admonishing them. Juni's voice wafted into her ears and Issy let out her breath in a loud gasp and looked around. Sure enough, it was Juni! Casting her friend a feeble, but somewhat broad grin, Issy turned back to the Slytherin, eyes narrowing.
"'Fudge' is right," she growled. "A food fight! And you hit an innocent bystander! You're not even a Ravenclaw! What're you doing, throwing food at our table? If you're bent on acting like an animal, take it to your table, and take this one," she gestured with her hands to Kana, "with you, because apparently she doesn't understand what maturity is."
Breathing heavily, she stared around at everyone, all the people who were suddenly involving themselves.
Then she snatched a napkin from the table and began furiously attacking her robes, trying to rub off the potatoes, as her eyes filled with tears. An adomonishing voice made Issy look up and, through her blurry vision, she tried to locate it. It took her a moment, but through wavery tears, she realized it was a ghost.
Great! Just great!
"Now we're being admonished by a ghost?" she wailed. "HAVE YOU GUYS NO SHAME?"
Then, in typical female fashion, she stomped a foot angrily. |

Mari looked up amid all the chaos and saw the Grey Lady. She was always impressed by the ghost, as if she were in the presence of royalty. Now to have her admonishing them all because of a few unruly children, she was embarrassed for the little troublemakers. " Can someone give those two giggling like mad a Calming Drought or something? I mean, it's quite bad enough there's food everywhere," She said, not to anyone in particular.
